				<td valign="top" class="text"><p>Let us first define what we want to achieve in this example. We'll carry on   from our previous drill-down example and convert it into a single page example.   In our previous example, we were showing the Production Summary of all the   factories in a pie chart. When the user clicked on a pie slice, he was taken to   another page, where a detailed date-wise chart was shown for the required   factory. </p>
					<p>In this example we will put both the charts together on a single page where clicking on a pie slice of the Production Summary chart will open the detailed chart on the same page without page refresh.</p>
					<ol>
						<li>
							Contain both the pie chart (summary) and column chart (detailed) in one page (<span class="codeInline">Default.asp</span>).</li>
						<li>
							When the page loads, the pie chart would use
							<span class="codeInline">dataXML</span>
							method to show summary of all factories. This data will be built in
							<span class="codeInline">Default.asp</span>
							itself.						</li>
						<li>
							There will be a JavaScript array named as
							<span class="codeInline">data</span>
							in this page. This array will contain detailed data for the factories. The 
							array will be dynamically built using ASP and then outputted as JavaScript 
							code.						</li>
						<li>
							Apart from the data in JavaScript, we'll also have a local JavaScript function
							<span class="codeInline">updateChart()</span>, which would process the data in 
							this array and convert it to XML data document, for direct usage by the column 
							chart.						</li>
						<li>
							The column chart would initialize with no data, as the user has not selected a 
							factory initially. We'll customize the &quot;<span class="codeInline">No data to display</span>&quot; 
							message of the chart to show a friendly message.</li>
						<li>
							The pie chart would have JavaScript links defined for each pie slice. This 
							JavaScript links refer to
							<span class="codeInline">updateChart()</span>
							JavaScript function present on the same page. We'll later see how to hand code 
							this function. When a pie is clicked, the
							<span class="codeInline">factory ID </span>is passed to this function.						</li>
						<li>
							The
							<span class="codeInline">  updateChart()</span>
							function is responsible for udapting the column chart. It generates the XML 
							data from data stored in JavaScript
							<span class="codeInline">data</span>
							array and conveys it to the column chart.</li>
						<li>
							The column chart would now accept this XML data, parse it and finally render.</li>

				<td valign="top" class="text"><p>You can clearly see that our ASP code has 
						outputted JavaScript code that can now locally create an array and feed it with 
						requisite data.
					</p>
					<p>Now, before we get to the JavaScript functions, let's first see what we're doing 
						in our ASP Code:
				    <ul>
						<li>We first create the XML data document for Pie chart - summary of factory output. 
						For each
						<span class="codeInline">&lt;set&gt;</span>, we provide a JavaScript link to 
						the
						<span class="codeInline">updateChart()</span>
						function and pass the factory ID to it as shown in the line below:<br />
						<br />
						<span class="codeInline">strXML = strXML &amp; &quot;&lt;set name='&quot; &amp; ors(&quot;FactoryName&quot;) &amp; &quot;'   value='&quot; &amp; ors2(&quot;TotOutput&quot;) &amp; &quot;' link=<strong>'javascript:updateChart(&quot; &amp;   indexCount &amp; &quot;)'</strong>/&gt;&quot;</span><br />
						<br /></li>
					<li>We now render the Pie 3D chart using dataXML method. The Pie 3D chart has its 
				DOM Id as
                  <span class="codeInline">FactorySum</span>:<br />
		                <br />
		                <span class="codeInline">Call renderChart(&quot;../../FusionCharts/FCF_Pie3D.swf&quot;, &quot;&quot;, <strong>strXML</strong>, <strong>&quot;FactorySum&quot;</strong>,   650, 300) <br />
						</span><br />
					</li>
						<li>Now, we render an empty Column 2D chart with
						<span class="codeInline">&lt;graph&gt;&lt;/graph&gt;</span> data initially. We also change the &quot;<span class="codeInline">No data to display.</span>&quot; 
						error to a friendly and intuitive &quot;<span class="codeInline">Please select a factory from pie chart above to view detailed data.</span>&quot; 
						This chart has its <span class="codeInline">DOM Id</span> as
						<span class="codeInline">FactoryDetailed</span>.<br />
						<br />
						<span class="codeInline">Call renderChart(&quot;../../FusionCharts/FCF_Column2D.swf?ChartNoDataText=<strong>Please   click on a pie slice above to view detailed data.</strong>&quot;, &quot;&quot;,   &quot;<strong>&lt;graph&gt;&lt;/graph&gt;</strong>&quot;, &quot;<strong>FactoryDetailed</strong>&quot;, 600, 300)</span></li>
				  </ul>
					        <p>					          Effectively, our page is now set to show two charts. The pie chart shows the 
						summary data provided to it using dataXML method. The column chart shows the 
						above &quot;friendly&quot; error message. Now, when each pie slice is clicked, 
						the
						<span class="codeInline">updateChart()</span>
						JavaScript function is called and the
						<span class="codeInline">factoryID</span>
						of the pie is passed to it. This function is responsible for updating the 
				  column chart and contains the following code:					</p>				</td>
